One of the college clinics I went to "suggested" that we use the method in the NCAA umpire manual. We were told that if we chose not to follow the "suggested" method, we'd have to be prepared to fully explain our method.

So, while there is no formally approved method for any of the sanctioning bodies - at least none that I know of - there may well be one that almost is mandatory.

That was a D1 clinic, the D2 clinics teach that method also, but there hasn't been any strong suggestion - one way or another - in the past.

I am of the opinion that the simpler the system, and the less writing we have to do - the better.
